This, combined with exactness and breadth of scholarship, led him so to translate the Greek New Testament into English as largely to determine the character, form, and style of the Authorized Version. There have been some painstaking calculations to determine just how large a part Tyndale may have had in the production of the version of 1611. A comparison of Tyndale's version of I John and that of the Authorized Version shows that nine-tenths of the latter is retained from the martyred translator's work. Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians retains five-sixths of Tyndale's translation. These proportions are maintained throughout the entire New Testament. Such an influence as that upon the English Bible cannot be attributed to any other man in all the past. More than that, Tyndale set a standard for the English language that molded in part the character and style of the tongue during the great Elizabethan era and all subsequent time. He gave the language fixity, volubleness, grace, beauty, simplicity, and directness. His influence as a man of letters was permanent on the style and literary taste of the English people, and of all who admire the superiority and epochal character of the literature of the sixteenth century.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Generosity is not giving me that which I need more than you do, but it is giving me that which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17254]]></link><description><![CDATA[Generosity is not giving me that which I need more than you do, but it is giving me that which you need more than I do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Responsibility is the thing people dread most of all.

The various members belong organically to each other in Christ, and are to exhibit that harmony practically in their common life. The recognition of how they differ from each other, and are yet one, is to enrich their worship, inspire their ministry, and quicken their love. To divide the local church is... to witness to a divided Christ, or to a discipleship to lesser masters than Christ, such as Paul or Apollos. Both implications are equally unthinkable. There is no New Testament pattern of serving the one Christ, except in one local body, formed by the incorporation given in the one baptism, and the continued life sustained by breaking and sharing the one bread.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6662</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The worst thing about work in the house or home is that whatever you do is destroyed, laid waste or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19641]]></link><description><![CDATA[The worst thing about work in the house or home is that whatever you do is destroyed, laid waste or eaten within twenty four hours.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19641</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It wasn't so pretty, but it's a win and a guarantee of at least a share of the region championship. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28189]]></link><description><![CDATA[It wasn't so pretty, but it's a win and a guarantee of at least a share of the region championship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He like a rock in the sea unshaken stands his ground. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51801]]></link><description><![CDATA[He like a rock in the sea unshaken stands his ground.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51801</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the first time I'm going to sign an agreement with any country. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40140]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is the first time I'm going to sign an agreement with any country.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40140</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stand your ground.
